A rocket in deep space has an empty mass of 220 kg and exhausts the hot gases of burned fuel at 2500 m/s. What mass of fuel is n
Scilla [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let fuel is released at the rate of dm / dt where m is mass of the fuel

thrust created on rocket

= d ( mv ) / dt

= v dm / dt

this is equal to force created on the rocket

= 220 dv / dt

so applying newton's law

v dm / dt = 220 dv / dt

v dm = 220 dv

dv / v = dm / 220

integrating on both sides

∫ dv / v    = ∫ dm / 220

lnv =  ( m₂ - m₁ ) / 220

ln4000 - ln 2500 = ( m₂ - m₁ ) / 220

( m₂ - m₁ ) = 220 x ( ln4000 - ln 2500 )

( m₂ - m₁ ) = 220 x ( 8.29  - 7.82 )

= 103.4 kg .

An ant can travel approximately 30 meters per minute. How many meters could an ant move in 45 minutes.
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

From what I see, it's saying that every minute, the ant can move 30 meters.  So how many meter would it move in 45 minutes?

30 meters = 1 min

x meters = 45 min

1 min x 45 = 45 min

30 meters x 45 = 1,350 meters

So, I believe the answer would be 1,350 meters.

hope this helps. :>

Consider a river flowing toward a lake at an average velocity of 3 m/s at a rate of 500m3/sat a location 90 m above the lake sur
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

mechanical energy per unit mass is 887.4 J/kg

power generated is 443.7 MW

Explanation:

given data

average velocity = 3 m/s

rate = 500 m³/s

height h = 90 m

to find out

total mechanical energy and power generation potential

solution

we know that mechanical energy is sum of potential energy and kinetic energy

so

E = \frac{1}{2}×m×v² + m×g×h    .............1

and energy per mass unit is

E/m =  \frac{1}{2}×v² + g×h

put here value

E/m =  \frac{1}{2}×3² + 9.81×90

E/m = 887.4 J/kg

so mechanical energy per unit mass is 887.4 J/kg

and

power generated is express as

power generated = energy per unit mass ×rate×density

power generated = 887.4× 500× 1000

power generated = 443700000

so power generated is 443.7 MW
